Fantastic compression fit with padding in all the right places
There are so many manufacturers and designs to choose from, I was getting serious decision fatigue doing my research. I'm learning to snowboard and needed padding that was beefy enough to protect me but still fit under my pants. These were absolutely perfect: the tailbone padding tucks under far enough, the sit bone padding hits right where I have no fat, the hip padding protects my greater trochanter, the fit is comfortably compressive over my legging while still allowing for freedom of movement. No velcro that can snag my smartwool baselayer, no extra hardware at the belly that would create discomfort under my snow pants. I took the drawstrings out because the fit was so good I would never need it. All this for less than $25, very satisfied! For reference I'm 5'4" 107 lbs and size XS was perfect and these feel true to size.

Efficiancy and sizing
When I snowboard if I mess up on a turn or a jump I usualy fall on my ass, these make it feel like i fell on a cloud, although the sizing runs a bit smaller than expected I wld suggest who ever get this amazing product they get a size larger than they are

Run large, great protection !
I ordered these in a medium and wear a women’s size 10 US. I really wish I’d ordered them in a small because they’re a little bit larger than I’d prefer and tend to ride down while I wear them for roller derby. They seem to offer excellent protection against falls and hits. I have fallen a couple of times since wearing these and hardly feel it in my hips or rear. My only complaint is they are a bit itchy around the waist area and if you aren’t layering these over another article of clothing they will irritate your skin. I always wear leggings underneath of them. I would definitely purchase these again due to the low price and the good protection they provide.

Extremely high waistline
On last year's snowboarding trip, I fell hard on my tailbone on my first run and the pain lasted a couple weeks. I just returned from a 3 day trip with these padded shorts. I feel like they protected me as designed, though I don't know for sure if any of my falls this year would have caused the same type of injury as last year.Other reviews indicate that these run bigger than the indicated size. I am 5'11" and normally wear medium pants/shorts (32" waist). I ordered medium and I believe I got the correct size. The legs, hip, and butt areas of the shorts fit nicely and the pads are not uncomfortable.Where I deducted stars from the rating, however, is the design of the waistline. In order to get the rest of the shorts positioned correctly, the waistline has to be pulled up uncomfortably high - above my bellybutton where I would never normally wear any type of pants. the waistline of these shorts sits at least 4 inches above my underwear and my snowboard pants. It just seems like there an unnecessary amount of fabric building up the height of the waistline above where the top of the shorts were intended to be.

Great buy
Not too bulky. Fit is perfect. Work really well for snowboarding.

Runs big! Great shorts
My husband is an XL through and through, in everything we buy. We read reviews and bought him an XL (he’s 6ft 3in and 215lbs) we received them and they were giant even with boxers and thermal layer underneath. Returning for the Large for himFor me (5 ft 11in 125 lbs) I went with a medium and they’re definitely big, but I’d rather layer under them than be suffocated. Also, they don’t sell an adult small so this was my only option for theseThey seem like a solid short, about to go snowboarding for 3 weeks so I’ll follow up and update this post to let y’all know how they hold up

Saved my ass
I had this on when I fell off my MTB and landed ass first on some rocks. I was left with a hematoma the size of a grapefruit, but I'm sure if I wasn't wearing this I would have broken my sacrum.

Sizing runs large and weird padding placement on hip.
I ordered a MEDIUM but I should have ordered a SMALL. I am 5’6” and 160lbs with an athletic build. I wear a 30 waist. I bought these for snowboarding.Like I said it runs large so the compression isn’t as tight as I would like to be. The padding feels nice and thick, the padded parts are probably about 3/4” thick. And the material it’s made out of seems to be good quality.My only gripe is that it feels like I’m wearing a big dirty diaper. Like it’s hanging off my butt. But that may be because it’s larger than I would have liked. Also, the side padding is placed too far forward. This was supposed to protect my hip bone if I fell forward, but it seems like it’s more to protect impact on your quads. Which doesn’t really help because you don’t fall on your quads when you snowboard, you fall on your hip or butt. So ideally, I wish it was stitched maybe an inch closer to the hip instead of forward. When I fall, in directly on my hip and not on the padding which kinda sucks.The place where the “zipper” is is made out of Velcro by the way.I’m sure it will do just fine falling on my butt, but the missing hip protection is what bothers me the most.

Worth the price for a medium not a small
Well made and comfortable.A little roomer than expected but because Amazon.ca Canada has prices that make no sense I will not be ordering another one in a small. I got a medium for under $29 but the medium is $99. Not worth $99.
